“Sydney was amazing! I contacted her last minute when we had to go out of town for a funeral. She had excellent communication - even when the power went out! She even washed the sheets and made the bed she slept in! She went above and beyond and I would 100% have her watch Zephyr and Finley again in a heartbeat!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I understand the importance of keeping pets on their normal routines and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I give every pet the attention they deserve. I am dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. My goal is to treat every pet like they are my own and provide owners with peace of mind while they are away. I can work most of the time and have a very flexible schedule, especially during the weeks before I leave for college this fall. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care, including feeding, walks, exercise, playtime, and companionship. I am reliable, organized, and committed to making sure pets receive consistent attention, care, and affection while they are with me. Safety is always my top priority. I carefully follow all instructions provided by pet owners, including feeding schedules, medication needs, exercise requirements, and any special care requests. I maintain a clean and secure environment, monitor pets closely during walks and playtime, and make sure they always have access to fresh water and a comfortable space to relax. I focus on building trust with both pets and owners by providing dependable, attentive, and compassionate care.
About: I have taken care of pets ever since I was young. Looking forward to taking care of your fur babies as if they were mine I recently lost my pets and the apartment I live in doesn't allow pets so I look forward to loving your fur babies as if they were my own I'm pretty flexible at dealing with animals I used to have a Australian shepherd and a Shih Tzu Chihuahua mix and two cats so I'm used to taking care of a lot of babies
“Emily did a great job. She was communicative, professional, and my animals loved her. It was evident that she loves animals. She was really helpful in not just one, but two last minute situations where I needed help. I highly recommend her and will certainly be looking to use her in the future.”
“Kaitlyn was absolutely a saving grace staying at our home and taking care of our fur babies. She is so amazing with our young dogs, energetic, bratty, and crazy as they are. She is patient and our chiweenie (who does NOT like strangers) was napping in her lap within 2 days. (We were SHOOK) She sends pictures several times a day along with any funny moments or important updates. (Which put our minds at ease our entire trip). Our fur babies are our children and having someone who we now trust and is so amazing with them… it’s such a weight lifted. It’s a miracle to find someone like Kaitlyn. 11/10 recommend her!”
About: I have been watching fur babies for few years now by word of mouth and my coworkers from work . Mostly Dogs and cats I watch . The biggest dogs I have watched was Great Dane and the smallest dog I have watched was cava poo puppy. I personally have a mixed hound myself and his name is Buster. I currently work full time at Costco . But my shift starts are second shift so the latest I’m off on the week days is 8:45 and on the weekends I start earlier so I am off by six. When I watch the fur babies I am usually asked to stay in their home so I do what I normally do my day is an early day I wake up at 6 am . I feed and walk the animals before I head to work . On my days off if it’s okay with the owners I tend to take the animals to the park and go for a pup cup ! If it’s okay with the owners I ask can buy the animals the pup cup. I keep dog seat in my car and for larger dogs I keep a large seat cover with a seat belt holder. I prefer to go to the Clients home because I understand that animals do better when they are in their own environment. I tend to stick to the owners routine .
“We didn’t get to use Diane this time. Our 14 year old Border Collie, Mouse, passed right before Diane was supposed to sit. My husband ended up canceling his trip and stayed home with our cats. However, Diane was very professional and friendly during our meet and greet and extremely empathetic upon finding out about Mouse.”
About: Hello, I have had dogs my whole life , grew up with them. Around the age of 10 yrs. old I really took an interest I took vet classes during school , I am able to administer medication, notice when something is wrong immediately. I have a job that allows me to be flexible , my pups and I go on 2 walks a day and play in the back yard all day! I have a fenced in yard that is 7 ft tall & turf . On warmer days I break out the kitty pool for them to swim and get the zoomies out. I have 2 extra spare bedrooms your dogs crate can go in , or they are open to sleep on any bed or couch! There is no where in my house that’s pets aren’t allowed they’re family!
“Nicole was so sweet and took such good care of the pups!! She was always easy to reach and sent lots of photos - I would absolutely trust her with our pups anytime!”
About: I have about 3 years of pet-sitting experience and have cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I have experience staying overnight at clients’ homes, stopping by throughout the day, feeding, walking, and making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I have cared for everything from playful puppies to senior dogs, small breeds to large breeds, and even pets that are shy or not comfortable around other people. I am patient, attentive, and understand that every pet has different needs. I love getting to know each animal and making sure they receive the care, attention, and affection they deserve! I don’t have a job so i have so much free time and love spending my free time caring for animals. I am available for drop-in visits, walks, and overnight stays depending on my schedule. I am happy to work with pet owners to find a schedule that works best for them and their pets. I enjoy giving pets plenty of attention and making sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have experience caring for pets in their own homes, including overnight stays and drop-in visits. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and specific needs. I am patient with shy or nervous animals and understand the importance of keeping them in a safe, familiar environment. I always make sure pets are fed, cared for, and given plenty of love and attention while their owners are away.
About: I am a state certified veterinary technician and also someone who has had a love for all animals since I was a kid. I've been helping all animals personally (and then professionally) for years...actually decades! I treat all fur-babies as I would my own. The unconditional love we receive from our pets is something I treasure and never take for granted. Whether young pups and kittens, or senior dogs and cats, I give them all the attention and love they deserve and crave (especially while their parents/owners are away). My schedule is currently wide open, as I have just moved back to Prospect, KY recently and am looking for the right fit in a veterinary clinic or animal hospital. My schedule is quite flexible, so I can work around yours. With my state certified veterinary technician license I am able to do things that others are not. I can also tell you what may be a start of an ear infection or allergies or nothing at all! I enjoy going to dog parks, taking walks, playing fetch (or keep away haha) but also enjoy the quiet calm time while rubbing bellies and brushing hair. Also dog massages for the senior dogs helps tons with their aches and pains and I more than willing to assist. It actually puts them in a calming trance. Cats and I are a sort of soul mate (maybe it’s the name haha) but I have dealt with watching 5 cats at an owners house and 3 of the 5 had special medical needs that I was more than happy to help! They started booking me a year out ahead of time if they could!
About: Hi! I’m Earl, and I’ve always genuinely enjoyed being around dogs. Whether it’s going for walks, playing outside, or just hanging out with them, I like getting to know each dog’s personality instead of treating every dog the same. What sets me apart is that I’m attentive and dependable. I don’t just show up to feed your dog and leave—I make sure they’re comfortable, getting plenty of attention, and sticking to their normal routine. If your dog takes daily medication (like pills), I’m comfortable giving those and making sure they stay on schedule. I also have experience caring for a family friend’s dog during multi-day trips, handling everything from feeding and walks to medications and keeping them company. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, if you’d like I can keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax while you’re away. My goal is simple: to make sure your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re gone. i currently work part time at amazon with flexible schedule, i’m able to move my work schedule around whenever so i can be available whenever im needed! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I do my best to stick to their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any daily medications they’re prescribed. I pay close attention to how they’re feeling and make sure they always have fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of attention. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both the pet and the home with respect. I’ll follow any instructions you leave, keep doors and gates secure, and can send regular photo and message updates so you know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable while giving you peace of mind while you’re away.
About: Pharmacy tech, very knowledgeable and familiar with administering medication to animals.* I’ve been rescuing animals since I was 8yrs old, I have a lot experience with young animals as well as senior care. I’ve never met an animal that I wasn’t able to make comfortable and build a bond with! I’m currently a stay at home mom, my baby would be next door at my parents during boarding. I’m excited to get the opportunity to enjoy your furbaby while being able to provide for my baby❤️ Depending on your preferences, I’d enjoy being hands on with your furbaby. I enjoy going for walks and runs. Lots of play time and engagement
“She provided an exceptional dog sitting/care for my dog Zora while I was in Chicago. She stayed on top with texting me updates with her feeding and daily walks. So happy for my dog Zora to be at the comfort of her own home while I was gone! Highly recommend Lizette (Toni Jo) for your pet’s care!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Broom Hill
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 661 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Broom Hill. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Broom Hill walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Broom Hill maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Broom Hill choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
